Ellen DeGeneres new judge on American Idol
So I was just reading this morning that American Idol has chosen Ellen DeGeneres as the judge to replace Paula Abdul who recently quit. She wont start judging until the live shows in February according to the story so she wont be on set for any of the auditions that they travel to across the country.
I’ll think she will be a great judge cause she is just like your average viewer except that shes famous. She doesn’t have a musical background which if you ask me doesn’t do the other judges any good except maybe Simon. All you hear from Randy Jackson is “you was a lil pitchy dawg” and “it was just ok but I wasn’t feeling it”. Then you have Kara DioGuardi and her usual response for the Idol contestant that she “doesn’t know who the contestant is” and they need to “find out who they are”.
Ellen is just like a regular viewer and she loves music as a fan and knows what she likes and I for one am looking forward to seeing what she has to say.
